Al-salam alekom ( may peace for you )

good day , dear Siddhartha , i think because your from india it will be easy for you to go and ask about islam from an approved centers , i really suggest you that you never listen to any one before you confirm what you heard by looking and searching ,you are asking how could we -Muslims - accepts marrige and slave and we dont accept non-natural behavior as you said,

will in each religion there are some rules and like muslims also christian and budhazim they dont alowe sex-relationship outside marriage .and in history all religian and empires there were slave in threre culture , but only islam the one that try and learn how to remove the slavery from our calture !!!!

how ??? will for example in islam if i didnt fast in ramadan and i didnt have an excuse , one of the way that god will forgive me is to free 10 slaves !!! did you see the equation 1 day in ramadan = 10 free salves , and if i bought man or woman as a slave there rights for them on me you might didnt know about this , and this rules are :

1- i should never heart him/her by word or bunch.

2- i am respnsible to feed him , give him a good place to live , and even give him a salary and most importent is also to learn him in school or universty .

3- if that slave want to be free i only set him a price and we agree on it .

4- if he want to work alone and give me every month a tax , like every month he will give you 50$

its depends about the agreament between them .

5- i must free him immediately without any charges if i slap him in the face - even if its one time or if he was wrong - becouse in islam we know if i did this i will go to hell .

i want you to read these again and ask yourself how is islam encourage you or slave

as you can see these rules are little bit difficult and the easy way is to free the salve .

yes am with you there some storeies that i ashamed rom these people from what they do and did,

but dont take these examples as a rule those people didnt read from the book correctly they just take what they like and dont take what they dont like .

in the end nobody in the world would like to be a salve we all born free we all human and sun of adam in front of allah .

Take Care.

Al-Salam alekom wo rahmato el lahe wo barkato
